Is this recipe for 2 or 4 lbs of mussels, or does it matter what quantity?
Lee. you can use this one for 2 LBs, double for 4.
Great recipe, very tasty. However I heard that your co-worker Andrew is a Chef, and has great recipes…will he share some?
My order was for chowder and muscles with an ice pack included. I’m assuming they were both frozen and put them both in the freezer. To use this recipe for the muscles, Do they need to be thawed or can they just be put in the water frozen and use the same amount of time?
